Arizona Diamondbacks base runner Lourdes Gurriel Jr. (12) is tagged out at home plate by Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Joey Bart (14) at Chase Field in Phoenix on May 27, 2025. Prior to Tuesday’s game against the Detroit Tigers, the Pittsburgh Pirates reinstated starting catcher Joey Bart from the 7-day injured list.
Bart has not played since May 27, when he was lifted in the fifth inning with concussion-like symptoms after taking a backswing to his helmet and getting hit by a foul ball against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
The 28-year-old catcher, who sat out 17 games, has posted a .240/.347/.308 slash line in 44 games this season. He started the year well, but went 4-for-43 with one double, one RBI and three walks in his last 12 games before going on the IL.
During his five-game rehab assignment with Triple-A Indianapolis, Bart went 3-for-13 with two RBIs, four walks and one hit-by-pitch.
